One hotel suite, four tenors, two wives, three girlfriends, and a soccer stadium filled with screaming fans. What could possibly go wrong? It’s 1930s Paris and the stage is set for the concert of the century – as long as producer Henry Saunders can keep Italian superstar Tito Merelli and his hot-blooded wife, Maira, from causing runaway chaos. Prepare for an uproarious ride, full of mistaken identities, bedroom hijinks, and madcap delight.

Character Breakdown
Henry Saunders– 50’s+ High-strung American producer; he’s had success but worked very hard for it and it shows.

​Max-30’s Rising American opera singer and former assistant to Saunders; smart, level-headed, and quick with a joke. Can sing well.

​Maria-Mid 40’s-Early 60’s Stunning wife to one of Italy’s most famous opera singers; big personality, explosive temper. Italian accent.

​Tito-50’s+Tito is one of Italy’s most famous opera singers; regal in appearance, fiery in nature; has a bit of a diva complex and is a horribly jealous person. Italian accent. Strong Tenor. Tito doubles as Beppo the bell boy.

​Mimi-20’s Bright-eyed star hoping to be discovered; she is the daughter of Tito and Maria and, while they still think of her as their little girl, she is definitely coming into her own. American accent.

​Carlo-20’s-30’s Dashing, young opera impresario who is in love with Mimi but seen as a threat to her father’s career; speaks English very well. No detectable Italian accent. Sings well.

​Racon– Mid 30’s – Mid 40’s  A beautiful woman that speaks with a Russian accent.

What To Prepare
Please prepare a 1 minute comedic monologue in the style of the show. Actors may be asked to read a side from the script.
